Poor Italy. Valiant, but not nearly good enough.
Sinckler didn't seem proper injured to me - part of me thinks he was scheduled for 40mins of game time but after they binned off the props in the first half they had to say he couldn't continue in the 2nd to be able to sub him off.
LCD didn't look happy, as you said.
Can't remember how Launch looked when he went off but 2nd row we've got plenty of depth, so while not good it's not a game changer.
In not sure on the watson vs daly battle, there are pros and cons to both. Daly has his failings yet fits v well into iur attacking systems. Im actually thinking having may watson daly. BigJoe/nowell. The out and out pace with that bsck 3 with something different on the bench.Eddie will keep Daly there, especially with Nowell AWOL
My first choice backline is:
Ford, May, Farrell, Manu, Nowell, Watson
With two of of Daly/Joseph/Joe C on the bench
Daly and May both play 11, and EJ has invested a lot in Daly at 15 this season, is my reasoning/guess at EJs thought process
What is it with Barnes and his Young's / Farrell / itoje love fest?
And that's why we can read precisely nothing into last night. It was always going to be meaningless and so it proved.Poor Italy. Valiant, but not nearly good enough.
Yeah the extra game time really proved crucial.Binny way off the pace,
